This is absurd LMFAOOOOOOOO

The replies to this break down into: - you're wrong we don't say that - I'm inexplicably angry about this Or - snips is pretty good, might use

😭😭😭😭

parch goes so hard😭😭😭

We gotta start using these lol

i’m german and i’m annoyed that i can’t lmao

You can! Lol

i meant irl but i might just adopt it in english spaces u make a good point lol

Yes 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

as an american… i’m calling scissors ‘snips’ moving forward.

😭😭😭

Oi guv fancy a game of rock parch snippers

Im British and we wouldn’t say any of that. We would say, “ what a knob”. Guess what that means

I actually don't like the sound of that lol sounds sexual

it's the way they unironically would say this fuckass slang for basic words im crying

scuse me mate 'ave you got some snippers

“WEW AT LOEAST WUE PLAIY DODGEBOLL AHND NOOT DODGEBULLETS AT OWA SKEWLS” ass replies

Accurate af tbh 😭🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

😭😭😭

Chapstick - lip balm Glasses - specs (Spec)tacles Paper - pad (note pad) Ring - ring Scissors - scissors Hair Gel - gel Loafers/flats - shoes / smart shoes gel is pronounced exactly like this. Elevator. Now swap the L for a W. Ewevator. Now lose evator. Ew. now add J - Jew - gel

Honestly he's got the gist but he doesn't see how lazy we are. Too many syllables. Not jelly but gel. Not lookies but specs (short for spectacles, but it's old-fashioned). We don't talk about chapstick? Also snips are a thing, but they're not scissors, they're a tool like pliers.

This guy is weird and is Brits don’t speak like that nor do we use words in those terms, what a bellend 😂🤣🤣🤣

Need that

Oh

Snips feels like a genuine contender tbf. But I do enjoy this ha. Put some more thought into it and try again, these are definitely more Aussie coded. Ours (British) are prob *mostly* just to make things easier, i.e. ‘cuppa’= cup of tea ha

I’m so irritated that this seems extremely accurate. 💀😭😭😭😭😭 “Lookies” 😭 “Snips” 😭😭😭😭😭

Actually considering calling scissors “snips” from now on. “Pass us the snips will ya?”

All the things he says are like australian.

We do have snips already, they’re like scissors but for cutting cable. So that’s one he got right.

kinda need him

Glasses = gigs/specs Shoes = dancers

I just KNOW the Brits (and the rest of the world) have a special term for you

As a British person, what is going on here 😂

To cut parch use snips.

He's spot on. That's exactly what we call them. Any Americans coming to the UK make sure you use the right words.

in glasgow at least, snips is actually what lots of people call wire cutters

"Nip a slip'a parch, love?" "Might I please have a piece of paper?" Very efficient, the made-up English way

I think I speak for all British people when I say…

Was he Dick van Dyke's voice coach?

it's funny how the world knows how wack british people are...EXCEPT british people.

yeah i'm british and most of these seem plausible. sometimes people just make up words just like he did here. like it's not a part of wider slang but calling glasses 'lookies' is something someone might say individually

parch is good ngl

Um,nope. We tend to complicate for wit, not simplify for ease tbh- see Cockney Rhyming Slang. Aussies do this though

No 6 🤣🤣🤣
